C-DaRE hosts a variety of conferences, symposia and other research events that attract delegates from across the UK and internationally. Our biennial Dance and Somatic Practices conference is an international gathering for scholars and practitioners to share new work through curated panels, papers, workshops and performative sharings. We also run a unique events series, C-DaRE Invites Each event is An Invitation to a unique occurrence developed in collaboration with staff and a guest(s) proposer. Events include but are not limited to: presentations, talks, discussions, sharing of practice, performances and film screenings. These are free and open for all to attend (unless otherwise stated). Presenters include C-DaRE members, postgraduate researchers and invited external researchers, artists and organisations. Each event is focused on a topic related to the invitee's current research and interests and is also curated, when possible, to take place during a particular meal of the day, i.e breakfast, lunch or afternoon tea. We believe that sharing food can be a gateway to conversation and developing relationships and collaboration. So, we prepare food and drink for the invitee and the audience to share during the course of the event.
